Ferry day trip from Helsinki to Tallinn with a small-group guided walk through Old Town, photo stops, and scenic viewpoints.
“Logistics/locations: We feel that the logistics were handled very well. The ferry tickets were emailed to us right away. The ferry ride itself was very pleasant since there was a a lot of entertainment and food. The guide had a sign when she met us on the Tallin side. They had a driver take us first to the palace, which was a bit far from the old town. We probably wouldn’t have seen it if we were doing it on our own. At the end of the the day, a bus picked us up from old town and took us back to the ferry port. Information/presentation: The information shared was…”
A one-day Lapland Winter Park pass in Rovaniemi with included winter gear, a long ice slide, reindeer moments, and warm Kota breaks.
“A great place for fun in the snow with your children. Sledges / rings provided for going down the main slope, kids loved it. Little wooden huts dotted about with log fires lit you could just go and sit in. Moss to feed the reindeers which the kids enjoyed doing. Restaurant is lovely, fire, lovely big windows looking out on the snow, good wines available and lovely food- staff really lovely too. Kids books etc & packs of cards available to use. Couldn’t do the ice skating as had rained the day before and warmed up a bit (was above freezing) so ice skating not on. Didn’t do the sauna…”

A guided one-day Santa experience in Rovaniemi, with Santa Village meeting, Arctic Circle certificate, framed photo, and Santa Park shows plus lunch.
“The tour guide made sure everything ran on time which was great and he made sure he always stuck around and kept an eye out for everyone before moving onto the next activity or area. Although it would have made it better and easier if we all had a coloured tag or lanyard or something which showed that we all belonged to the same group so that the tour guide (and we) could easily identify each other when there is so many other people around”

Private 4-hour Porvoo trip from Helsinki with hotel pickup, expert local guides, Porvoo Cathedral, Old Town streets, and free time for shops.
“We did this tour today (mid June). We were picked up from our hotel in central Helsinki. There were only two of us, but it was a 7-seater SUV so the guide was able to sit facing us and gave us a good overview of not just Porvoo but also brief history of Finland, culture, food and many topics while we are en-route (45 min) to Porvoo. We walked around the old town, learned about the Devil Stairs and gossip mirrors, visited quaint shops (sampled traditional Finnish licorice, chocolate and ice cream). Our guide (Olga) was very knowlegeable and able answer questions even on the floral and fauna we encountered…”
Santa Claus Village from Levi with lunch, Snowman World, and a stop at the Arctic Circle for winter magic in Lapland.
“Het is veel geld voor wat je krijgt. Wij hadden een busje voor onszelf, we waren met 6 personen. Lunch was karig en pas om 2 uur, half 3 vertrokken we alweer terug naar ons hotel. Gids was er niet, maar goed, bezoek aan Santa was fantastisch. Let op tijdens het bezoek aan Santa mag je zelf geen foto’s maken. Als je ze wilt moet je kooen. Je koopt dan een link zodat je ze zelf kunt downloaden. 2 foyo’s en een videoflimpje, € 60,00.”
Santa Claus Village day trip from Levi with Arctic Circle crossing, Snowman World ice fun, buffet lunch, and free time.
“It was good but it would have been helpful to know the visit with Santa is based on first in first served as we ended up getting there too late to be able to see Santa because our guide said we had to leave at a set time and the only time to see Santa was after that time so we missed out and that was our main purpose for going to Santa Claus Village.”
